  • United Breweries Share Price Slumps 30% in Year as Earnings Decline
    January 23, 2026, 10:38 PM EST. United Breweries (NSE:UBL) shares dropped 5.2% last week, extending a one-year slide of 30%, sharply underperforming the broader market's 5% gain. Earnings per share (EPS) fell 22% in the year, outpaced by a 30% share price decline, signaling investor jitters. Despite weak short-term returns, the stock posted a modest 3% annual gain over five years. The price-to-earnings ratio remains elevated at 104.16, suggesting market optimism despite earnings weakness. The recent intensified sell-off raises questions about fundamental performance versus market sentiment. Investors may view the current dip as a potential long-term buying opportunity amid concerns flagged by earnings trends and insider activity.
